A numerical model study of the Alboran Sea gyre

Reduced gravity and two-layer numerical models have been used to study the circulation in the westernmost basin of the Mediterranean Sea, the Alboran Sea. Circulation is forced by flow through a 20 km wide port in the western boundary representing the Strait of Gibraltar.
